Lighting for corporate events, wedding dance floors, and live shows around Seattle. I design it, build it, and run it live. Send a date and you'll have an availability answer within the hour.
Brightness and color are set so phone videos and pro cameras don't blow out. Most of your guests are filming. The lighting should know that.
Toasts run long. First dances start late. I'm at the board all night, adjusting to what's actually happening in the room instead of playing a preset.
Ground-supported truss, no ceiling rigging, no venue engineering sign-off. It works in hotel ballrooms, breweries, barns, and rooms that would never approve a hung rig.
Product launches, holiday parties, milestone dinners, executive mixers. I match the rig to your brand colors and run it quietly around your program, whether that's a keynote, a reveal, or three hours of mingling.
These are from a full tribute concert in Seattle, shot by Katie Choe. The same rig and the same operator show up for corporate rooms and wedding dance floors; those photos get added as the bookings wrap.
The lighting elevated the whole show. Songs we'd played a hundred times suddenly had weight, and every phone video from that night looks incredible.
The job changes over the evening, and the light changes with it. Here's how I think about the four moments every event has.
Same three packages for corporate events, weddings, and shows. Every one includes load-in, the live-run design, and strike. Where you land depends on hours, headcount, and add-ons; check your date for the full breakdown.
Tribute concerts, cover sets, community showcases. If your venue has no house rig, I bring one, and I run cues to your actual setlist. Encores included.
Cuebeam is me, Ben Liu. I quote the job, plan the cues, drive the van, build the rig, and run the board. If you email about your event, you're emailing the person who'll be standing at the console that night.
Yes. A 50% non-refundable deposit holds your date, and the balance is due on or before event day.
Travel within the Greater Seattle Area is included. Further out, like Tacoma or the rest of Puget Sound, there may be a flat travel fee. Ask when you check your date.
Overtime past your package window is $150/hr, agreed in writing before the event. No surprise charges.
4 to 8 weeks out is ideal. Shorter notice sometimes works; check your date and I'll tell you straight.
Every package includes load-in, live-run design, and strike. See the Packages section above for what's included at each tier, or check your date for a full breakdown.
